| Graphic Design, Illustration, Animation and Motion Graphics are different implementations of the same goal: creativity. My strength as an artist comes from my ability to use whatever tools are available to me. Let me show you how putting creativity first will always accomplish the goal. |

[www.philivey.com]
Website for Pro Poker Player Phil Ivey. This web site design became the template for all other pro poker player websites associated with Full Tilt Poker. In a conference, I spoke with Phil to determine his tastes and then created a design that references the design for FullTiltPoker.com. I tied in Full Tilt Poker's look and feel by referencing the top curve of the navigation. The company wanted to do this tie-in to create a subtle association between the Pro Players' personal sites and the site that they all play on, FullTiltPoker.com.

Poster for Full Tilt Poker.com on line promotion "The Hunt for Red in October." This poster is a parody of The Hunt for Red October. It was used to promote an on line promotion for Full Tilt Poker. Pros are featured in red on the website. So the Hunt for Red in October was the tagline for a promotion where users tried to bust out Red Poker Pros on the site. The poster was printed 22x28 and framed for pro poker players and executives here in the office.

Main Street Equity Ventures wanted to update the look and feel of their website. As a venture capital company, Main Street needed to convey a solid, stable image with their internet presence. The solution presented itself through a combination of the company's interior design and digital photography of local architectural elements. Typography from the client's letterhead and business cards was imported into the design to integrate the company's print image with it's web presence. The site's frames are powered by Cold Fusion templates.
